Blown-in-Blanket

BIBS is an insulating system that uses Johns Manville Climate Pro fiberglass insulation blown into palaces behind a mesh fabric at a specific density. BIBS is much better than traditional batts, and is able to achieve a higher R-value. We recommend BIBS when our customers are looking for a more efficient alternative to batts, but the budget does not allow for the use of Spray Foam in all the walls. In these situations, we often install BIBS in all the walls, and spray foam insulation in the rim joist ends to create a very efficient insulation system at a lower cost then using spray foam exclusively. The BIBS system provide a uniform density, eliminates settling and shifting, and fills costly air gaps, voids and seams. Tests show the a mere 4% void area from a poorly installed batt causes a 50% increase in heat loss. The Blow-In-Blanket system eliminates voids and does not settle. Because of its uniform density and seamless coverage, BIBS is a great option for insulating in between floors to help soundproof theater rooms, play areas, or bedroom. The patented Blow-In-Blanket system can only be installed by contractors certified by Blow-In-Blanket. When conventional batts are installed in non-standard cavities or irregular framed areas, problems can occur. Batts must be cut-to-fit for these areas, creating gaps and seams that reduce efficiency and allow heat or air conditioning to escape. The BIBS system create seamless blanket of insulation that custom fits any shape or size of cavity. This guarantees a uniform R-value throughout the entire cavity, and controls air infiltration.
